I installed Alt.Binz 0.28.2 a few days ago, having previously been a user of the free version. Generally, everything has been fine, except for some odd issues whereby files would download fine, typically until the last two or three files in a collection, where it would simply stop. If I then add more downloads, or unpause some of the .par2 files, the downloads will continue, but will then stop again after another file or so is downloaded. There's plenty of free disk space, the scheduler is disabled, and it's making very little sense. The articles are there on the server - the log doesn't report any issues - but the files simply don't download unless there is more in the queue waiting. As an example, I have one ~200MB download just now that has stopped on around 170MB. I unpaused the par2 files and it finished one file, and downloaded 10% of another (15MB) file. But again it has just stopped, with 140MB left to go. But if I go and add some other random file to the bottom of the queue, then alt.binz happily downloads the rest of my files for the collection I actually want.
OS is Windows XP x64 Edition, running Outpost Firewall 2009. No problems of this sort occurred with Alt.Binz 0.25.0.
Anyone got any ideas or had similar problems? Thanks for any assistance.
